Description
Many of the artists in Half Moon Bay have found that bracelets, rings, and necklaces engraved with runes are very popular with tourists. Initially, tourists were interested in the jewelry because it represented the unique artistic culture of Half Moon Bay. However, as more artists started becoming involved in the jewelry business, they used the runes for a competitive edge. The artists are careful not to reveal the secret of the runes, but they will place small enchantments on their merchandise. For example, customers might notice that the jewelry will shine brighter than normal, or make the wearer feel more confident, or stronger while wearing it. Though most outsiders simply dismiss it as superstition.
